World’s Science Storytellers Set to Converge in South Africa for WCSJ2025

 


By Abioye Tosin Lawrence | Oriontimes International Desk


The world’s leading science journalists, communicators, and innovators will converge in South Africa for the World Conference of Science Journalists (WCSJ2025), the largest global gathering of professionals shaping how humanity understands science.


Held every two years under the auspices of the World Federation of Science Journalists (WFSJ), the conference offers a vibrant platform for knowledge exchange, debate, and collaboration. Attendees will participate in seminars, workshops, and lectures featuring leading voices in science communication, with access to global expertise and practical training designed to inspire excellence in reporting.


Organisers promise an engaging, relevant, and stimulating programme, blending professional growth with opportunities to explore the country’s scientific, natural, and cultural heritage. Beyond its sessions, WCSJ2025 will ignite conversations around how science journalists can help societies build resilience amid pressing global challenges, from climate change to misinformation.


The event is jointly organised by the South African Science Journalists’ Association (SASJA) and the Science Diplomacy Capital for Africa (SDCfA), an initiative of South Africa’s Department of Science, Technology and Innovation (DSTI), in collaboration with the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR).






SASJA, a non-profit national body representing science and technology journalists, continues to champion ethical science reporting and stronger bridges between the scientific community and the public. Through networking, training, and collaboration, it works to ensure that science journalism remains a trusted voice in an era of complex global narratives.



As anticipation builds, WCSJ2025 is set to reaffirm the power of storytelling in shaping the world’s understanding of science, one headline, one discovery, and one conversation at a time.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
